Freeserf is Jon Lund Steffensen's ongoing project to recreate the Settlers' game
engine. A few game features are still missing, in particular the computer
opponents. Nevertheless the game is absolutely fun to play: build your own
kingdom, explore, and watch how the tireless tiny men are working
for you.

The AmigaOS 4 version has all the features which the current game engine (Nov 29
2013) has to offer and in addition easy icon startup, Amiga load requester for
loading saved games, automatic saving and loading for the game settings, and
instructions.

To play the game you need the original game data file from the DOS version of
the Settlers.

New in version 0.1.1:
* main menu: you can select a mission or play in a custom sized map
* you can switch between windowed and fullscreen mode during the game
* adjustable window size in the windowed mode
* user aid: show or hide building sites
* auto load and save for game settings: music, sound effects, volume, and 
  screen mode
* validates game data file
* bug fixes
* game startup script updated
